In this problem, the given velocity(√gl ) is the minimum velocity required for the particle at its highest point to complete vertical circle.

Let, u & v be the velocity of the particle at its lowest and highest point respectively.

u : v = 2:1 => u = 2v.----------->(1)

according to work-energy theorem,

mg(2l) = (1/2)mu2 - (1/2)mv2 --------------->(2)

from eqns (1)& (2), we get v = (2/3)(√gl).

 

This is the minimum velocity of the particle in its complete circular motion in this present case.
